THE Missing Link in Human Nutrition

Glyconutrients – Your Cells Aren't Talking Without Them!

Most of us have been educated that our diet is no longer sufficient to maintain good health and we need to take a daily multi-vitamin. Some of us do… and many of us don't!

In addition, have you heard? There's a new kid on the block, that is arguably the number one dietary supplement to add to your wellness & lifestyle program.

This whole new class of nutrients, Glyconutrients, are the key to one of the most important breakthroughs in recent medical science. We’ve all been bombarded with warnings about consuming too much sugar. But, in fact, for our bodies to function properly, we need proper amounts of eight necessary sugars, only two of which – glucose and galactose – are commonly found in our limited, over-processed diets.

Powerful Science Proves Missing Sugars SPELL Trouble!

It turns out that cell surface biological sugars (not the same as glyconutrients) are involved in almost every aspect of biology, from recognizing pathogens, to blood clotting, to enabling sperm to penetrate an ovum. The list of things they are already known to do includes regulating the half-life of hormones in the blood, directing embryonic development, and acting as "address codes" for directing traffic of various cells and proteins throughout the body. Biologists are only just beginning to get to grips with these sugars, but as they do they are finding themselves having to rethink long-held ideas about how life works. "This is going to be the future," declares biochemist Gerald Hart of Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore. "We won't understand immunology, neurology, developmental biology until we get a handle on glycobiology." (quote adjusted for modern compliance reasons)

Immune system cells read the cell surface sugar structures on other cells to determine if they're healthy, need repair or need to be destroyed. And when cells turn against the body as in degenerative or autoimmune functions, research has shown that sugars are missing from their glycoprotein strucures… Rockefeller University, July 23,2007

"When cells turn against the body, as in degenerative type functions, research has shown that sugars are missing from their glycoprotein structures."

By combining glyconutrients with other high quality, essential plant nutrients also missing from an average diet, you are building your lifetime wellness plan supporting good energy, alertness and overall inner strength.

A New Strategy for Integrative Health Support

Integrative health combines the best that modern medicine has to offer in critical care with the best strategies for supporting the body's normal recovery and repair functions to achieve best patient outcomes. Healthcare professionals from all over the world have discovered the integrative health benefits of standardised glyconutrient products, especially when combining them with other plant nutrients and complementary therapies.

“Glyconutrients are your first step in dietary supplementation,
they underpin your body's wellness, and enhance outcomes of any other wellness choices you make.”

What Are the Doctors Saying?

Dr Rob Sinnott PhD on Mannatech. Mannatech is more than just another supplement company. “We are an industry-leading pioneer of Real Food Technology solutions. Our discoveries in aloe vera saccharide research & glyconutrition have led to groundbreaking products like Ambrotose complex. We are committed to your wellness.”

Dr Stephen Boyd, MD, on the addition of the nutritional supplement Advanced Ambrotose™ powder to the diet. "The full clinical implications of these glycosylation changes have yet to be determined. What can be said conclusively is that the ingestion of Advanced Ambrotose™ powder affects the body at a basic level. This is a scientifically valid, peer-reviewed, objective study that has nothing to do with symptoms or how people feel. Once and for all, this negates the opinions of so-called experts and miscellaneous detractors who argue, for their own varied reasons, that Mannatech’s glyconutritional supplements cannot have an effect on the body. They do! In fact, previous human clinical studies have also documented cognitive, well-being and gastrointestinal benefits (2),(3),(4).* Mannatech’s glyconutritional supplements work, and you can take that to the bank!"

Dr John Rollins, MD, former Howard Medical School Professor and U.S. Patent and Trademark Officer calls glyconutrients, "One of the most important healthcare discoveries of the 21st Century … I believe that the overall immune-. supporting potential of glyconutrients represents the best integrative health strategy that science has to offer:'

Dr. Ben Carson, MD was named by Time magazine as one of the top 20 doctors in the U.S. and is internationally recognized as one of the world's leading Pediatric Neurosurgeons. In his book, Take the Risk, he states that when faced with his own health risks, he did an exhaustive search of the options available and determined that the science of glyconutrients provided the best integrative strategy for supporting his body's immune system and normal recovery processes.
